Answer

### a) 0.4### b) 74.6### c) 15.2

Explanation

## Step 1: Identifying the Tenths Digit### The tenths digit is the first digit to the right of the decimal point. For 0.37, it's 3; for 74.55, it's 5; and for 15.23, it's 2.## Step 2: Rounding to the Nearest Tenth### Look at the digit to the right of the tenths place (the hundredths digit). If it's 5 or greater, round the tenths digit up. If it's less than 5, keep the tenths digit the same. Drop all digits after the tenths place.0.37 rounds to 0.4 (7 > 5)74.55 rounds to 74.6 (5 = 5)15.23 rounds to 15.2 (3 < 5)
